sprite

*hugs Liz* It was a wonderful week. Very inspiring and fun.

1:29 am

sprite

how are you and your beloved?

1:30 am

Lizlin

We're fine - feeling sorry for Rose - rotten weather for the last week and forecast for next week too.

1:30 am

sprite

aw :(

1:30 am

Lizlin

Cloud, cloud and more cloud with some rain. Perhaps it'll be better towards the end of the week.

1:31 am

Lizlin

Really happy that your week was both inspiring and fun.

1:32 am

sprite

it always is. Good people, good environment, good program... can't ask for more!

((((spritely))))

1:40 am

sprite

how is life, stiddie?

1:42 am

stidmama

good. Trying to get waaaaay ahead for the upcoming year. It's going to be an interesting ride. (got my class list already) I have about 7 weeks until I have squirmy kids in the seats!

1:42 am

stidmama

you?

1:42 am

sprite

sounds good! I am fine, busy but happy

1:43 am

stidmama

happy is definitely good

1:43 am

sprite

so true :)

1:43 am

stidmama

watching "Lethal Weapon" with Grant and Tom at the moment....

1:44 am

sprite

always a pleasure. "I am too old for this shit..."

1:44 am

stidmama

LOL

1:45 am

sprite

my favorite scene is the suicide one, early in the first movie. Brilliant.

1:45 am

stidmama

*looks around for Liz* we are certainly an interesting group -- you are in Saturday, we are still Friday -- Liz is almost to Sunday...

1:45 am

sprite

odd, isn't it

1:46 am

stidmama

We (babblers) are the new world empire, part of a world where the sun "never sets" LOL

1:46 am

Lizlin

I'm here - just a few more words to find. time zones are weird though not that close to Sunday yet but closer than you. Nearly 5 pm here.

1:47 am

Lizlin

Happy to be part of the babble empire but it would be good to see some sun ;)

1:47 am

stidmama

yep, a lot closer than me! that dateline is pretty amazing. :-D

1:47 am

sprite

getting close to 9 am here. Yes, we are, a good new world order with a never setting sun and usually lots of peace, support and fun to be had.

1:48 am

Lizlin

I'm still amazed that when we flew to Vancouver, we arrived 3 hours before we left!

1:49 am

sprite

that would mess with my brain!

1:49 am

Lizlin

It was brilliant - meant we got an extra day with family.

1:49 am

Lizlin

Flying back not so good though!

1:50 am

stidmama

The extra day would be nice....

1:51 am

Lizlin

Got to go. 8 left, which with this lovely grid shouldn't be too hard to find. Hugs to you both and keep fingers crossed (or whatever) that the weather brightens up for Rose.

1:52 am

sprite

*hugs Liz* have a grand evening and hug your beloved from me too

1:54 am

stidmama

((((liz)))) good to see you.

2:09 am

sprite

2:09 am

stidmama

2:10 am

stidmama

2:10 am

sprite

2:10 am

sprite

good!

2:12 am

stidmama

getting really tired... I think I will leave the other 48 for tomorrow. :-) Love having some time to play late into the night, but it's late. Have a lovely rest of your weekend! :-)

2:46 am

Jivingjenny0

grannyrose

coo and g'day from me

2:54 am

gapeach

Hi there, Rose.

2:54 am

grannyrose

*sigh* i am very tired... cooee

2:54 am

grannyrose

hey peach. how are you honey?

2:55 am

gapeach

Doing OK so far. How are you?

2:56 am

grannyrose

have travelled nearly 700 miles since yesterday morning. starting to feel fatigued.

2:57 am

gapeach

Wow. I bet you are> Get some rest please.

2:58 am

grannyrose

just another 300-400 miles to go and then i can rest in glorious sunshine either on the beach or sitting in a chair.

2:59 am

gapeach

Are you driving or flying?

3:00 am

grannyrose

don is doing the driving. but the wear and tear of the body beautiful hurtling through space at over 70 mph is draining.

3:00 am

Lizlin

Glorious sunshine - you'll be lucky!

3:01 am

grannyrose

hey, what have you done to the weather ?? i sent you a truckload of sunshine from gundagai.

3:02 am

grannyrose

we saw the forecast for monday, that will do me fine....

3:03 am

Lizlin

It never reached here :( This weather is so wrong for mid winter. 40% chance of rain on Monday.

3:03 am

Lizlin

But warm

3:03 am

Lizlin

High of 24

3:03 am

grannyrose

i missed sprite tonight. i was waiting for this slow piece of machinery which laughingly calls itself a laptop, to load up and log in.

3:03 am

Lizlin

She had a wonderful week.

3:04 am

grannyrose

i was praying for that for her.

3:04 am

Lizlin

How's your journey going - apart from being tiring?

3:05 am

grannyrose

not too bad. don, of course, is a laugh a minute... i hope to catch some good quality zzzzz's tonight. last night too sore, and too excited to sleep properly.

3:06 am

grannyrose

the scenery is spectacular. jaw-dropping to be exact.

3:06 am

grannyrose

today i remembered to dose up at lunch time so have traveled much better.

3:07 am

Lizlin

Perhaps one day we might do a shorter version of that drive.

3:07 am

Lizlin

We've talked about a round driving trip to Sydney but flying is so much quicker.

3:09 am

grannyrose

it is quicker, but like i said the scenery is amazing. we have been driving through the high plains of the Great Dividing Range.

3:09 am

gapeach

brb

3:09 am

Lizlin

We'd do a coastal route if we did it.

3:09 am

grannyrose

may catch you later peach.

3:10 am

grannyrose

well the coast between sydney and lakes entrance is to die for.

3:11 am

Lizlin

Well it's a very long time in the future if it happens.

3:11 am

grannyrose

it's called the sapphire coast. and that is what it is.

3:12 am

Lizlin

Friends did that drive when they were over from the UK. Said it was lovely.

3:16 am

Lizlin

Have a good evening,Rose. Safe travels. Hugs.

3:16 am

grannyrose

brb, checking for power point for CPAP

3:17 am

grannyrose

{{hugs}} dear liz. looking forward to talking in person tomorrow.

3:45 am

gapeach

Hey, Rose, the grid says I need two more re's but I can't find them on Lickety's List. What do I do now? Th anks

3:48 am

gapeach

NM, Rose, I just had not put them on the grid side. FW for me ...first time in a very long time. Have a wonderful time on your trip. Blessings

4:54 am

Trifioso

good morning friends

5:00 am

rubyfoo

good morning

5:06 am

bichon

bon jour mon ami

5:12 am

Trifioso

hello!

5:13 am

Trifioso

so sorry about recent events, ruby....I don't even know what to say

5:14 am

bichon

Why is France so often a target?

5:17 am

bichon

I am hoping that there is no violence at the Republican convention next week

5:18 am

Trifioso

other than someone smashing a pie in trump's face, I agree

5:19 am

MollyL

Bichon, here is Time Magazine's answer to your question:
The roots of the problem are complex: France has a history of violence in its encounters with the Middle East and North Africa and a domestic Muslim community with long experiences of discrimination and feelings of exclusion from French society. France’s prisons have become a recruiting ground for extremists. And the French radical right is growing in influence, stoking tensions through rhetoric that is often anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim.

5:20 am

rubyfoo

They say that most of the violence, muslim-related, occurs in French-speaking places. Maybe because of the colonial past of France and Belgium

5:20 am

Trifioso

wow. that is a good, concise answer

5:21 am

rubyfoo

Molly, though tall, is always concise!! lol

5:21 am

MollyL

As for Trump, this election is like a bad summer re-run of the last two. The Republicans will nominate someone so out there and over the top that The Democrats could get Bozo The Clown elected.

5:21 am

rubyfoo

These events are making me sick and nervous. I don't feel safe any more, even in this backwater

5:22 am

MollyL

Ruby, you can take some comfort in the fact that terrorist attacks usually take place in highly populated areas.

5:22 am

Trifioso

sorry - enable woe - "pitter" is not a word? that must be news to all the folks who sell cherry pitters. or love the pitter patter of little feet.

5:22 am

rubyfoo

And it's extremely cold here for July, less than 50F this AM

5:23 am

Trifioso

I can certainly understand why you would feel that way, ruby!

5:23 am

rubyfoo

The problem her is that it's a popular tourist destination, and there is a big, crowded festival the first Saturday of August.

5:25 am

Trifioso

oh gosh ruby. see, that', to me, is where the conundrum really gets going - if everyone stays home, due to fear, the terrorists take that as a win. if everyone attends, refusing to be cowed, they put themselves at a terrible risk.

5:32 am

rubyfoo

exactly, Trif

5:33 am

rubyfoo

There are security guards checking purses abd bags at the supermarket and the hospital and a Jewish school in a neighboring town has military guards in front

5:33 am

Trifioso

oh man....what a way to live.

5:39 am

Marc Freeman

I have of5/16 x 2, what are the stats of the 3rd 'o

5:39 am

Marc Freeman

please?

rubyfoo

5:40 am

Marc Freeman

thanks

5:46 am

bichon

I never understood why the Jewish population of France hasn't moved to Israel.

5:49 am

Uneaixoise

it's my understanding that many have left France in recent years

5:49 am

Uneaixoise

hello, all :-)

5:50 am

Uneaixoise

Ruby, you've been on my mind -- I certainly understand your anxiety at the moment!!

5:51 am

Uneaixoise

need to feed the pups and take them out to pee -- back in a bit :-)

6:56 am

Bichon, 1000's have left, but for me ther is no other place

Nice icon Judi. I don't think it goes with the Jerry Garcia mention though.

11:17 am

rururocks

well.. Jerry Garcia Ballooned in weight?

11:17 am

MLFAN17

hi again judi

11:17 am

Judi

Thanks, Molls. Didn't know we were observing GC. I don't pay much attention to icon theme days anymore.

11:18 am

Judi

Hubby's a Deadhead tho. I don't get it.

11:18 am

MLFAN17

no theme days for quite some time judi

11:18 am

MollyL

GC? I just looked at your icon and the text didn't match it.

11:18 am

rururocks

<---has an original skeleton and Roses poster from the Avalon

11:18 am

MLFAN17

my brother's are or were as well judi I never understood the fascination either

11:19 am

rururocks

I'm not a Dead fan however

11:19 am

MollyL

I see the Eiffel tower and France colored balloons with a Jerry Garcia mention.

11:20 am

Judi

I just updated my profile. No more peacock spider/Gerry Garcia.

11:20 am

MollyL

I have never understood the Grateful Dead fascination either.

11:20 am

Judi

Thanks for calling that to my attention. I changed my pic to signify mourning for the folks in Nice.

11:21 am

MollyL

Jerry would be grateful, even though he is dead.

11:21 am

MLFAN17

jerry Garcia, judi. I see the ones with the balloons

11:21 am

rururocks

(Judi is all current and tidy now)

11:22 am

MollyL

It is a great message in a photograph. I like it.

11:22 am

Judi

Call my ears unsophisticated, but all the Grateful Dead song sound pretty much the same to me.

11:22 am

MLFAN17

well at least judi is something don't know what I am lol

11:22 am

MLFAN17

judi yes its called noise lol

11:23 am

Judi

lol, MLF. Shhh! My husband might be listening.

11:23 am

MollyL

There is cult worship for a lot of bands I don't get. Rush, for example. While Neil Peart is a great drummer, Getty Lee is a terrible singer. Hence, I am not a Rush fan.

11:23 am

MLFAN17

not that familiar with Rush so not a fan either

11:24 am

Judi

Rush and all the other "super groups" all sound the same as well.

11:25 am

MLFAN17

Rush is a "super group"?

11:26 am

Judi

I believe they were considered a super group.

11:26 am

MLFAN17

not sure about that

11:27 am

MollyL

MLF do a Google search on Rush Tom Sawyer. I'm sure you have heard them if you listen to rock music.

11:27 am

Judi

I seem to remember them being right up there with Cheap Trick, Journey, etc.

11:28 am

rururocks

I wouldn't know a rush song if it bit me in the ass

11:29 am

MLFAN17

judi you might be right with that as I have seen them mentioned as such I know its the same kind of sound as the other bands you just mentioned

11:29 am

MollyL

Tom Sawyer is one of those songs you turn off when it comes on the radio because it makes your ears bleed.

11:29 am

MLFAN17

ruru I just googled them, I don't recognize any of the songs at all

11:29 am

rubyfoo

Nice Nice icon, Judi

11:29 am

Judi

You're not missing much, Ru. I'm sure I-Tunes would be happy to give you a sample.

11:30 am

rururocks

didn't they just go into the hall of fame too?

11:30 am

MLFAN17

if that is the case molly I would rather listen to NightWish

11:30 am

MollyL

I have an affection for Cheap Trick as that was a nickname a male friend gave me once. I like Journey because Steve Perry was a hot boy in his day.

11:30 am

rururocks

I kinda like Cheap Trick

11:30 am

Judi

Hello, Ruby. Thank you. How are you?

11:31 am

rubyfoo

I feel like I'm a dinosaur; my music experience ended in the 80's

11:31 am

rururocks

I like Perry's voice and I think Neil Schon (sp?) is a pretty solid guitarist

11:31 am

MLFAN17

The Flame by Cheap Trick is awesome

11:31 am

rubyfoo

I'm sort of OK. Have you seen the news about Turkey? That is really scary!

11:32 am

Judi

I also remember the lead singers of all the super groups sounded more like women than men.

11:32 am

MLFAN17

ruby some of the best music came from the 80s

11:32 am

MLFAN17

judi that is true

11:32 am

Judi

I read about the short-lived coup attempt in Turkey. Reportedly over now... martial law and all.

11:33 am

rubyfoo

Thank you, MLF

11:33 am

rururocks

I hear the government stuffed the coup

11:33 am

MLFAN17

yw ruby:D

11:34 am

Judi

That is usually how coups go. Squashed by overwhelming military might.

11:34 am

MollyL

Oh man, some of the worst music ever came from the 80's.

11:34 am

rubyfoo

What makes the situation scary is that we have used their now-closed airforce base for our airstrikes in ISIS and we have a lot of US personnel there

11:34 am

rururocks

true.. but rap music is much worse

11:34 am

MLFAN17

molly I grew up on it

11:35 am

MLFAN17

i like very little rap music myself

11:35 am

rururocks

That explains a lot MLF :P

11:35 am

MLFAN17

it does?

11:35 am

Judi

Who was responsible for the coup attempt? I heard something about a faction of the military, but it was all kind of murky.

11:35 am

MollyL

Ruby, I changed my flag icon to France in a gesture of solidarity. I'm sorry your country is going through so much strife.

11:36 am

rururocks

The Military tried to gobble up some cities I think

11:36 am

MLFAN17

ruby how far are you from any of what has happened recently?

11:37 am

rubyfoo

Was my choice of décades wrong? Led Zep, Traffic, Chicago, X, Stevie Wonder, Beatles, Stones - don't know much about history

11:37 am

MLFAN17

de 6/21?

11:38 am

MLFAN17

Traffic?

11:38 am

rubyfoo

That is sweet, Molly

11:38 am

MollyL

Ruby, your choice of decades was just fine. Everyone you mentioned was good, good music.

11:38 am

rururocks

Traffic was a good band

11:38 am

MLFAN17

Beatles are before the rest of the artists you mentioned Ruby

11:38 am

rubyfoo

er than Paris, but there are a lot of mountains between

11:38 am

rururocks

beatles are from the 60's however

11:39 am

MLFAN17

don't know Traffic at all that i know of

11:39 am

rubyfoo

Phew; I thought I had messed up

11:39 am

MLFAN17

ruby ah

11:39 am

rururocks

Traffic had Dave Mason and Stevie Winwood

11:39 am

rubyfoo

That's when I moved to Miami and was a salsa queen lol

11:39 am

MollyL

I dare anyone to not get up and dance when Stevie Wonder's "Superstion" comes on.

11:40 am

MLFAN17

ruru wasn't their a singer with the last name Windwood who went solo is that the same one?

11:40 am

rururocks

rubyfoo

<-- dancing in the kitchen

11:41 am

MLFAN17

you are allowed to do that ruby:)

11:41 am

MollyL

Steve Windwood's best single was "Roll With It". That brought back line dancing from the 60's.

11:42 am

rururocks

i'm creeped out by Mick Jagger getting a 29 year old pregnant

11:42 am

Judi

Ditto, Ru. Yeeeeeech.

11:42 am

MollyL

I am sure that was creepy for the 29 year old too.

11:42 am

mattygroves

Withered willy....

11:42 am

MLFAN17

Higher Love is a great song

11:42 am

Judi

Although, that will no doubt secure her spot in the childe support hall of fame.

11:43 am

MollyL

There are women who will close their eyes and suffer to get impregnated by a wealthy rock star.

11:43 am

MLFAN17

11:44 am

11:46 am

Bill Withers is probably one of the least mentioned, but best musician of the 70's - 80's genre.

11:46 am

rubyfoo

Yay for Bill Withers!

11:48 am

Judi

What Mick Jagger says when his wife asks, "can we do it again?" Sorry, Love. Bill Withers.

7:46 pm

Uneaixoise

7:47 pm

between emergency call and shoulder pain preventing finding a good position, I got less than 5 hours sleep last night.. then worked 10 hours today. so also tired :)

7:47 pm

hope you get some rest tonight :-)

7:48 pm

jesdraggon

me too! I hope your tropics get less steamy :)

7:48 pm

Uneaixoise

I understand about finding a good position -- 2 days ago I stepped up on a tall stool to change a lightbulb, fell backwards, hit my head on the side of the bathtub, and had to have 5 staples to close the cut

7:48 pm

Uneaixoise

what a klutz!!

7:49 pm

jesdraggon

oh no! head trauma is not good for you

7:49 pm
